I love coming here! I look forward to it!
The greatest misconception anyone can have about Christianity is that Christians must "please God" when the reality is that we MUST ONLY...and I repeat ONLY...TRUST GOD!!! FINALLY...a Christian church in Phoenix...or ANYWHERE for that matter that gets it, talks about it, and lives it.
I've been attending irregularly (due to work and travel) for 2 years and I don't really know anyone here. It can feel rather clicky because of the deep relationships that have been established for many years and sometimes the inside jokes and comments only widen the gap for a newcomer, however, you won't hear a more authentic, true message anywhere. They are certainly more of a congregation than a business, and I really appreciate that.
I look forward to possibly feeling more welcome (and I realize that takes effort from me too) but until then, a great message of God's grace plus nothing gets 5 stars every time!!!!
